First of all, welcome to myLot.
I have really, really bad anxiety issues. I get restless, I feel hopeless, and a multitude of other things. They're so bad sometimes, that I get physically sick and vomit. I'm not on medication, but I do know that I should be.
I pray all of the time, I try to tell myself that things will be okay. I close my eyes and try to visualize all possible scenarios, and what I would do in each of them. That helps a bit.

Thank you very much for tip. I will try that when I had another bout of depression. But I am afraid that taking a deep breath will be insufficient to counter my anxiety, because that i think that my depression is now so deep. Maybe I go find a psychiatrist or undergo a therapy.
Thank you for your help. This is deeply appreciated ;)

it would be easier if you know what caused your depression or your anxiety.. nonetheless, i believe that the best way to fight your depression and/or anxiety is to pray and ask God for His guidance; talk to a friend, someone whom you really trust, and tell your friend how you feel. it helps a lot to express how you feel.
i hope you feel better soon. =)

I know the cause of my anxiety at this moment...and I also know the triggers of my anxiety. Sad thing for me is that I am a loner, (my friend, the ones I really trusts were all far away from me).
For now I feel better, but I konw that this feeling is lingering inside of me.
Thanks for your comment. :)
